#35 2/17/19 Repeat Red Apple

So that blank pink canvas....thought I would try out Carol Marine's idea to paint over a canvas that was pre-painted with another color, and leave little bits of the under color show through.  Went for the same dang apple, definitely not attempting another rose in front of the parents.  This apple was free-handed, that's right, I couldn't do my chalk carbon copy because the pink canvas was just a tiny bit damp.  So the apple's a bit thinner and taller than the actual, but still recognizable.  Not a lot of pink is popping out.  Another difference: this canvas is wrapped around a wood frame, 6 inches instead of my regular flat 5.  Found them half price at Hobby Lobby.  I painted the sides different versions of deep blue.  It's moody; yesterday's apple is happy.
